What Exactly Do I Do In Studio?

Well, we color a lot.
We provide visual stimulation one 11 x 17 at a time.
We rotate virtual models for hours.
We draw with a mouse and keyboard.
We photograph.
We design t-shirts, magazines, and websites.
We learn how to talk so now one else can understand us.
We have created irrational bonds to our computer, and know its moods.
We are still trying to understand what tectonic means.
We provide the mood of a room.
We provide the mood of a city.
We go to museums, but not for the art. [sometimes we go for the art].
We collect pens.
We spend hours talking about fonts.
We analyze. We over analyze. We over-analyze?
We over-analyze. We always make the same decision in the end.
We make deals with the local art supply stores.
We have grand schemes.
We have side projects.
We express our wildest dreams and desires through parti diagrams and building sections.
We construct temporary palaces made of cardboard and wood.
We don't create rooms, we create spaces.
We haven't left this building in 25 hours, and we're not even thinking about leaving any time soon.
We are never satisfied.
We think it should look more like this....
We are trying to figure this whole thing out.
We see invisible meaning.
We know that thirty-five years ;ater, we will have just gotten started.
We understand the artistic potential of mass-produced chairs.
We graffitti.
We know the difference between a portico and a vestibule.
We get into physical confrontations about wall thicknesses.
We wonder how everyone else does it.
We haven't stopped thinking about designing stince we started.
We've done more work than you have.
We think we have an ego problem.
We know about that obscure project in that small country in Eastern Europe by that firm with the strange name.
We're all really just doing this so that we can build our own houses and put a hot tub in our bedrooms.
We're not impressed with their new stuff.
We still don't know what we want to be when we grow up (but we don't tell anyone.)
We have friends here and they're the only ones who REALLY understand.
